Hi guys!
So I've recently made a thread asking for some help trying to access my PSU because of an EVGA issue, however that has not worked out. So what I decided to do was to make a little video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0bgMhs5dyI

Long story short, I have 2 GTX 1080's, both that need an 8-pin PCI Connector to the PSU. However the EVGA cable only has an 8(6+2) pin and a 6 pin that seems to branch off of that. I've tried to access my PSU but have not been able to.

Also, I have found this and will be updating this to say if it worked or not.

You obviously have a camera and probably a smart phone, just take pictures of everything. Then unplug all the wires and pull the unit out. There should be a 24pin on the right hand side of the motherboard and a 8 pin cpu/esp cable at the top left. Its very hard to mess things up, computer parts only plug in one way. If you can install your gpus there should be no issue plugging cables into the motherboard.

If I try to take it out from the back, it starts to pull on the cables and I'm afraid of breaking something.
